I think its official name is Velleggia's Italian Seafood Restaurant of Little Italy on Water Street Presents Supano's Steak House.

That was a joke but I see it listed in various ways:

Open Table
Supano's Steakhouse, Italian & Seafood Restaurant

Yelp
Supano's Steakhouse

Citysearch
Supano's Steakhouse Prime

Best of all on Allmenus.com they are listed as:
Supano's Pizza & Pasta
110 Water St
Baltimore, MD 21202

Ho ho ho!

You can still see the old signage that this guy added to Velleggia's in Little Italy that has it being an Italian & Seafood Restaurant, Wine Bar, Osteria (?) and Gelateria.

They had to change the name after original owners Frank and Nazz Velleggia successfully sued the new owner after the Little Italy location was abandoned and he slapped the name on the vacant former Water Street Exchange. Trademark!

I guess they are a Mexican restaurant too since I spy cheese quesadilla ($9.99) and chicken tacos under "Pasta" on one menu.

Yelp has one review and it, surprise!, is 5 stars. Here it is for your general amusement:
Amazing Italian food!. Quality steaks and seafood!. Don't miss this gem of place!.
